Lisbon Dakar 2007 -- Back to Lisbon
« on: January 22, 2007, 10:16:52 pm »
No need for comments here... it was a long trip! I started flying along the coast, but then I realised that I could go out of fuel, so I went direct to Tenerife. At the end I had 200 lbs left... luckily there was no ATC on my way...



















Next to Lisbon! Hoping for the best... But did I deserve the award already? Or only at Lisbon again?

Cheers,
Luciano

Nice shots Luciano ! How much fuel you needed for that trip ?

You will get the award, once you parked your plane back to the EHM events hanger in Lisbon ;)

Thanks Robert,

I started with full tanks, so I had 4420 lbs, less 260 at the end... I used 4160, equal to 1000 lbs/hr in the average.

Thanks Jay,

I worked out an interesting statistic on the recent flights back to Lisbon, for my flight planning



Ave consumption about 1000 lbs/hr...;)
